For 21 years I have decorated my home for Christmas. As my display grew so has the work involved in setting it up. I'm sure everyone knows it is not a small undertaking, but I doubt anyone except for my family, is actually aware of the commitment that is involved. The set up of last years display took well over 300 hours, work that begins in mid Sept. culminating in the light up on Dec. 1st. In years past I have been blessed with being able to take the entire month of November off from work and work full time on the display. Sadly, This year has been very different.

After spending most of the summer agonizing over the whole thing it became apparent that this years display just could not be pulled off and that for the first time in over 20 years the December nights will seem a little colder and a little darker on Collingwood Rd.

God willing, next year we will be back bigger and brighter! Merry Christmas,
